We value contributions from the community and regularly invite feedback on policies, strategies and projects.
The Council has endorsed a Communications and Engagement Policy, Framework and Strategy to make sure we are applying best practice principles, values and processes when communicating and engaging with the Kingborough community.
- The Communications and Engagement Policy aims to make sure all of our communications and engagement activities adhere to the values and objectives as set out within the Policy.
- The Communications and Engagement Framework provides Council officers with the methodology to develop effective communication and engagement strategies. It also seeks to make sure Council improves the evaluation and reporting mechanisms for each project.
- The Corporate Communications and Engagement Strategy is to provide an overview for the communications and engagement activities for the Kingborough Council for a 12 month period.
The Kingborough Community Consultative Forum meets every three months, where representatives from community organisations across Kingborough meet with Council Officers to discuss ideas and provide feedback on a range of projects.
We value the opportunity to gather information about what you want and to make collaborative, consultative decisions. Council now has an online community engagement platform, where all of Council’s online forums, polls and surveys will be published.

Would you use a trail along the North West Bay River?
We commissioned a feasibility study for a multi-use trail along the North West Bay River.
We want to know if you support this project and if you have any concerns or issues that we haven’t thought of. Let us know if you have suggestions on how we can address any of those concerns.
If you do support the trail, tell us how would you use it? Would you see it as a connection for social or work? Or would it be for recreation – walking or biking or horse riding? How often would you use it?
There is no funding for this project, however, we continue to explore any State and Federal grants that may be able to support it.
